Spring, Stash and a winner

Spring appears to have sprung!
My miniature azalea has made itself all pretty,











and the beach is getting busy again (but we found a quiet corner yesterday).













The postman brought me my order from Karen at Wasatch Needlework. Raise the Roof's "Official Crazy Cat Lady"
Have they met me?
I love this design, it has come straight in at number one on the must-stitch list! The only thing I'm not totally sure about is it lists some threads on the back as CCT. I'm thinking that must be Crescent Colours?

And finally the Dandy Dreams chart. There was quite a lot of interest so I drew a name and the winner is Sally! If you could just let me have your address Sally, I'll pop it in the post to you.

    I keep longing for signs of spring! Mother nature keeps teasing us with a day or two of warm temperatures then dives us back down to -10 with a sprinkling of snow!!! I am so ready for spring!

    What a CUTE pattern I'm a crazy cat lady for sure! But I do draw the line at 2
